Mr. Speaker, in 1986, the auditor general requested the unemployment insurance account be integrated with the government's general fund.
On Tuesday, the auditor general criticized the size of the surplus in the employment assurance fund and said it should be kept to a maximum of $15 billion instead of the current $25 billion.
Is this government going to listen to the auditor general as it did in 1986 and reduce the surplus by increasing the number of unemployed eligible?
